Just wondering if there is a definitive guide for including php files and code in vb4.x or if someone can explain. Right now I am trying to include a php header file. I have followed the instructions here https://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/..._externalfiles but can't get it working.

Here's what I have tried in plugins under the global_start hook;

PHP Code:

ob_start();
$includedphp = ob_get_contents('/home/site/public_html/inc/header-inc.php');
vB_Template::preRegister('header',array('includedphp' => $includedphp));
ob_end_clean(); 


and I have put

PHP Code:

{vb:raw includedphp} 


in the header template.
I have also tried

PHP Code:

{vb:raw global.includedphp} 


This doesn't work. The site's header include consists of plain html with inline php echos. I have tried changing it to a single php echo but still no good.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
